Chinese Yam, Goji, Lotus Seed, Lily and Soft-shell Turtle Soup

Why people make this soup

Soft-shell turtle is a richly nourishing ingredient that, in traditional thinking, nourishes yin and supports the blood and bones. Nourilo offers this soup for people who feel depleted — with symptoms like warm palms and soles, palpitations, night sweats, dizziness or ringing in the ears — to help build them back up gently. Paired with yam, goji, lotus seed and lily bulb, it is a soothing, savoury soup that also supports calm and sleep.
